Leh



Have arrived in Leh, an amazing place . The cloudburst/mudslide has made a lot of damage to the town. The hotel is OK . The NSW gals have come and we are all together. We have had 3 hospital visits with 4 people suffering from altitude sickness. The locals have been fabulous to us from the hotel communication is easy. We are delayed a bit until everyone is fit and well. In 2 sleeps we will be crossing the highest passable highway in the world. The bikes look great and hopefully we will have a ride this afternoon. The town is a buzz of excitement today as the Dali Lama is arriving to offer prayers and hope to the flood victims. Pictures will be posted soon.

  1. Looking good girls after a 30 hr flight, missing you already @ pilates. Hope the altitude sickness eases off quickly for all concerned. Rest well in preparation for the next part of your wonderful trip. Thinking of you.

    Love Lynda A
